D-level males reached the pinnacle of life by living off women.

Lu Yuan lay shirtless in the medical pod, several mechanical tentacles moving incessantly over the wound on his back. He could clearly feel the wound healing rapidly.

Actually, when he was told that he would have to endure the flogging, he had no idea how painful it would be to be lashed.

Then he strode into the execution chamber with his head held high. When the executioner made him lie down in the designated spot, he didn't feel much. He just thought, "It's just pain, I'll just have to endure it."

Then when the first lash came, his face changed. He could clearly feel his skin being torn apart, followed by an explosive pain, and then a burning sensation.

After that, he used his fist to cover his mouth to barely keep himself from howling.

After the Fifteen Light Whips finished, his entire body looked as if he had been pulled out of the water.

The insect that came to help him said that Rhine was waiting for him outside, so he pretended to be fine so as not to worry Rhine.

A real man can't let his wife see him looking pathetic.

Lu Yuan had thought that such a wound would take at least three to five days to heal, but he was surprised to find that the medical care here was really good.

After Lu Yuan lay down in the medical pod, he felt his pain rapidly lessening within two minutes.

More than four hours have passed now, and Lu Yuan feels that he is almost fully recovered.

Sure enough, after about half an hour, the mechanical tentacles stopped moving and retracted automatically.

The medical pod also stopped operating, and the door opened automatically. A doctor in a white coat walked over with a smile.

"Lord Lu Yuan, your wound has been fully healed. Is there anywhere else that feels uncomfortable?"

Lu Yuan sat up and moved his back. He didn't feel any pain, and everything seemed normal.

"No, I feel great now."

"Okay, then do you need to stay in the hospital for observation for another night?"

"No, thank you. I want to go home."

"Okay, your queen is waiting for you at the door."

Hearing what the doctor said, Lu Yuan quickly got up, put on his clothes, and went outside.

As soon as I stepped out of the medical room, I saw Rhine pacing back and forth in the corridor outside.

"Rhine, I'm fine now," Lu Yuan shouted energetically.

Rhine turned around and saw Lu Yuan. He first smiled, then immediately withdrew his smile.

Rhine first went to the doctor and asked, "Doctor, how is my lord?"

The doctor replied with a smile, "Don't worry, your master is fine now. All the wounds have completely healed."

"OK, thanks."

After the doctor left, Rhine glared at Lu Yuan, then walked out without saying a word.

Knowing that his previous behavior had angered Rhine, but since they were in the hospital and he couldn't easily coax her, Lu Yuan had no choice but to follow behind Rhine like a submissive wife as they walked out.

As Lu Yuan walked down a corridor, he noticed a commotion in one of the wards, with medical staff constantly heading in that direction. He stopped and took a curious look.

Sensing that Lu Yuan hadn't followed, Rhine stopped and looked in the direction Lu Yuan was looking, a glint in her eyes.

"My lord, what are you looking at? Let's go home," Rhine said.

"Oh, okay, coming, coming."

Lu Yuan quickly jogged a few steps to Rhine's side, leaving the little commotion behind.

After returning home, Lu Yuan spent a long time coaxing Rhine before finally managing to calm her down.

Although Lu Yuan repeatedly admitted his mistake for accepting punishment today, he was actually thinking that admitting his mistake was one thing, but he would do it again next time.

As for what to do if Rhine gets angry again next time, just keep coaxing her. There's nothing shameful about coaxing your wife.

......

Lu Yuan thought that his matter with Song Mo was over.

Although Song Mo was the one who ran up to him and made a nasty remark, he still beat Song Mo up. Later, he was also whipped fifteen times for killing insects. In Lu Yuan's opinion, he and Song Mo were even.

In the end, he still underestimated how annoying Song Mo was.

After some time, Song Mo, who hadn't updated his blog in a long time, suddenly posted a short, vivid essay online.

At first glance, this appears to be a breakup statement, saying that Song Mo and Rhine have broken up amicably and that he will no longer release videos related to Rhine.

But if you look closely, you'll find that many of the words and phrases used are very suggestive.

What? Song Mo and Rhine are destined to be apart? Fate just loves to play tricks on us. We can never resist the arrangements of fate.

As soon as the short essay was posted, there were immediately many people offering their interpretations.

After some explanation, the insect that made the interpretation came to a bold guess.

Those who say Rhine broke up with Song Mo out of necessity are blaming it all on the forced matching incident at the Xiongbao Association.

It must have been when Rhine was exiled to the desolate planet that she was forced into a relationship by that low-level male insect that the Male Protection Association assigned to her. She then felt that she was no longer worthy of Song Mo, so she painfully broke up with him.

Song Mo agreed to break up entirely out of respect for Rhine's choice.

As for why Rhine still maintains her marital relationship with that low-level male insect without getting a divorce, it's naturally because Rhine is a female insect with traditional virtues, following her husband wherever he goes.

This speculation is strikingly similar to the previous rumor from the military, and quite a few people online actually believe it.

Each insect can conjure up a tragic novel from these snippets of information, completely ignoring the fact that the difference in strength between low-level male insects and high-level female insects is enormous and cannot be forced.

Lu Yuan was aware of the various rumors circulating online, but he didn't react much.

Anyway, none of the messages said anything bad about Rhine. As for himself, it didn't matter. Being said a few words by the insects wouldn't have any real impact on him.

Besides, he's living a very good life now. His job is easy, and he enjoys it. After get off work, he can spend sweet time with Rhine, and during his time off, he can go on trips to increase the number of photos on his photo wall.

Despite being married for so long, the two are still very much in love and in the honeymoon phase.

He already feels like he doesn't have enough time, so how could he have time to pay attention to online news or get angry with netizens he doesn't even know?

However, Lu Yuan was too lazy to deal with these things, but Rhein was not willing to let it go so easily. Of course, he knew who had released this information online. It was Song Mo who was deliberately damaging Lu Yuan's reputation.

Although the timing isn't right and he can't kill Song Mo yet, it doesn't stop him from collecting some interest first.

Rhine secretly used some methods to make Song Mo, the internet celebrity, disappear from the internet completely, but before those methods could take effect, Rhine received a phone call.

The Eighth Prince invited him to meet.
